Research Abstract |
We have studied codes, lattices and vertex operator algebras related to finite simple groups. Main results are as follows : 1.The classifications of the 2-and 3-radical subgroups of Fischer's simple groups F_<22>, F_<23>, F'_<24> have been completed. 2.Even unimodular Gaussian lattices of dimension 12 have been classified. 3.A sufficient condition for extremal Z_6-codes, and as an application, many Z_6-code related the Leech lattice had been constructed. Moreover the self-dual Z_6-codes of length 8 are classified. 4.The construction method of unimodular lattices using ternary self-dual codes has been studied. Extremal odd unimodular lattices in dimensions 44, 60 and 68 are constructed for the first time. 5.The constructions of vertex operator algebras using Z_8-codes and subalgebras V_<√<2>A_3> have been considered. We also give a complete decomposition of the Moonshine VOA V^* associated with some subalgebra given by an embedding of the lattice (√<2>A_3)^8 into the Leech lattice. 6.By using Z_3-orbifold construction given by Dong-Mason, we give a complete decomposition of the Moonshine VOA V^* associated with some subalgebra given by an embedding of the lattice (√<2>A_2)^<12> the Leech lattice. We also give the explicit actions of certain 3A-elements of the Monster simple group on V^* are defined.
